This research focuses on control of insect pests in rice utilizing various biopesticides containing Chromobacterium subtsugae strain PRAA4-1 and Burkholderia rinojensis strain A396. Field and greenhouse trials were conducted to evaluate efficacy against rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus (Kuschel), Mexican rice borer, Eoreuma loftini (Dyar), sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) and fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith).
